When the tall and strong man fell to the ground, they had already fled far away.
"Chase!"
Not only Dina came this time, but also several colleagues from the Inspection Office.
Most of those who can join the Inspection Office have some connections, and their families are either rich or noble. Many of them even practice breathing techniques.
These people may lack experience in life-and-death battles, but in terms of strength, they are by no means bad, and they are even good at playing when the wind is in their favor.
“I never thought.”
While running, Dinah said, "You are already a knight's squire. Where did you learn the breathing method?"
"No comment!" Carl snorted coldly, "For deliberately putting a noble in danger, I will report this matter to the Noble Council and apply for your dismissal from your position as Chief Inspector."
"If I hadn't helped you just now, you might have died." Dina frowned, "Is this how you repay your lifesaver?"
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in danger at all!"
“…”
Dinah was speechless.
After a pause, he said, "Regarding the mummy case, Ham did find some clues, but he was murdered before he could tell me."
"so……"
"I asked you to go get something and spread the news to the public. It was to use Ham's investigation results to lure the murderer. I just tried it at the time, but I didn't expect it to really attract the killer."
"Humph!" Carl said in a dull voice: "I almost died!"
No matter how justified the other party's reasons were, the fact was that he was in danger, and he could not forgive him.
joke.
You only have one life, what can you forgive? Just because you have a pretty face? "You..." Dina's face was filled with anger: "Forget it, let's catch him first."
“Bang!”
Seeing that they could not escape the pursuit, the two people in front smashed a wooden door and rushed into a three-story building.
"You can't escape!"
Dina quickened her pace and leaped up to the second floor in a flash. Before she could see the surroundings clearly, she saw a ball of fire coming towards her and she subconsciously turned around to avoid it.
"Bang!"
The flames exploded and scattered on the ground.
The sparks that fell to the ground attached to the soil, wooden walls, bricks and tiles, and did not go out immediately. Instead, they tended to become stronger and stronger.
This fire...
Carl's eyes narrowed, some remaining memories of his previous life came to his mind, and the scar on his cheek ached slightly.
"careful!"
Dinah even shouted:
"It's the fire thief!"
The Fire Thieves are a group of pagans who believe in "fire". Their goal is to create fire and burn everything. They have the ability to create special flames.
"kill!"
With roars and shouts, the colleagues from the Inspection Office collided with the fire thief hiding in the house.
Dinah bore the brunt of it.
The rapier in her hand was sharp and pointed, and a rapid stab could even cause a piercing whistle. With a slight tremor of her wrist, the sword shadow instantly became stronger.
The fire thief who stood in front of her was pierced countless times in the blink of an eye.
More than just swordsmanship.
Her physical skills were also quite good. She dodged flexibly in the narrow aisle and stabbed out with her rapier from time to time, causing the fire thieves who blocked her way to fall one after another.
"boom!"
The door broke.
In front of a group of brave inspectors, the fire thieves who rushed to meet the enemy in a hurry could hardly pose any obstacle.
Carl took the big sword he picked up. Although it was not as useful as his broadsword, it was much better than the dagger.
"Bang!"
Angry attack.
The great sword brought down a man with great force, and he took the opportunity to rush into a room.
The room was filled with various bottles and jars, some of which contained turbid liquids, some of which were soaked in animal viscera, and there were various complex tubes connecting the glass bottles together.
At first glance.
Like a mad scientist's laboratory.
Weird! Karl was stunned, and then he heard a roar from the side room.
“Damn it!”
The voice was sharp and piercing: "You ruined my experiment!"
"boom!"
A ball of fire exploded from next door, two figures retreated with a groan, and then a man was seen rushing out.
The person who rushed out was young and had a fair complexion. The key point was...
Carl has seen it.
I met him on the road a few days ago. He got on Anne's carriage and was suspected by Carey to be a vampire. His name seemed to be Miles.
At this moment, Miles' face was ferocious and his expression was distorted, and his anger seemed to have devoured his sanity.
The one swinging the sword was a colleague from the Inspection Office named Aubrey, who was also a knight squire who practiced breathing techniques.
Aubrey swung the knight's sword in his hand and went straight for the young man's neck.
With his strength, he can easily chop off the head of an adult.
“Swish!”
As Aubrey looked astonished, the knight's sword drew an arc and perfectly avoided Miles' body.
It seemed as if an invisible force distorted his movements.
at the same time.
The cane in Miles' hand popped open, and a rapier was pulled out of it, and he swung it lightly at Aubrey.
The rapier was not long and should not have been able to touch Aubrey.
but……
“Squeak!”
A crack appeared on Aubrey's abdomen, and blood gushed out. Half of his body slowly slid off his legs, his eyes full of astonishment and unwillingness.
“Go to hell!”
After killing Aubrey, Miles was still not satisfied. He chased after the other man and also swung his sword.
"bite……"
The rapier clashed with the knight's sword.
This time Carl saw clearly that there was a strange light about a foot long on the thin sword.
The light seemed to have substance, and it collided with the knight's sword, creating some sparks.
Another colleague was hit hard and staggered back, but fortunately he was not cut in half like Aubrey.
“Swish!”
Carl, who was watching the game, was not spared and was hit by Miles.
Carl's breathing stagnated, his heart contracted, and his breathing method sent out dangerous warning signs. He also instantly understood why his colleagues seemed to react so slowly.
There seems to be an invisible force field around this person. Anyone who gets close to him will be suppressed by the force field.
"when……"
There was a collision sound.
Carl took a step back, feeling a little relieved.
Although the opponent's methods were strange and difficult to understand, his strength was not that strong, and was even weaker than that of a knight's squire.
“Swish!”
“Swish!”
Before he could come to his senses, Miles attacked again with the rapier in his hand, and the afterimages suppressed the two men.
Under the influence of the strange force field, the attacks of the two could hardly pose a threat to the other side, while the attacks of the other side were deadly.
"ah!"
The screams beside him made Carl's eyes twitch.
However, his companions were careless and his legs were cut off, with blood gushing out from the broken parts.
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise.
After cleaning up other places, Dina turned into a black shadow and jumped down. The rapier in her hand swung again, leaving afterimages, even like a small tornado.
Fighting skill - Sword Dance! The fighting skill displayed by the top knight squire almost encompassed everything in the small half of the house.
Miles is the top priority.
"puff!"
"Chi..."
Carl felt a flash before his eyes, and saw Miles staggering, as if he was injured.
"superior!"
Dina's voice was cold and even panicked: "Kill him!"
"Oum!"
Miles hurriedly raised his hand and took out a ring inlaid with sapphire jade. At the same time, a strange sound exploded in the ears of the two.
Carl's body stiffened.
In an instant, countless chaotic sounds rushed into the eardrums, and everything in sight became distorted, strange, and bizarre.
Many hallucinations emerged.
The winged little men, the squeaking flying insects, and the upside-down and chaotic direction almost made him collapse to the ground.
Dina beside him groaned, the rapier in her hand fell to the ground with a clang, her eyes were lifeless and she stood there, instantly losing the strength to resist.
'What's going on?'
'what happened?'
Carl struggled to raise his hand, and instinctively activated the hidden arrow, but then his eyes went black and he fell to the ground.
